LayerZero expands into Canton linking wall street tokenization rails with public chains. The move links Canton's privacy focused institutional rails with broader crypto liquidity as tokenized securities and collateral efforts accelerate. Just now ago LayerZero said Thursday it has integrated with Canton Network, becoming the first interoperability protocol live on the institutional blockchain and opening a route for tokenized assets on Canton to move across more than 165 public chains. The tie-up is aimed at solving one of tokenization's biggest bottlenecks, which is how to connect regulated onchain assets to broader pools of liquidity without sacrificing privacy or compliance. The announcement matters because Canton has emerged as one of the main blockchain rails for traditional finance. Canton said this week that Broadridge's distributed ledger repo platform handles about $300 billion to $400 billion in onchain US Treasury repo volume each day. The network is also expanding as infrastructure for tokenized Treasuries and bank-issued digital cash. Institutions issuing assets on Canton could tap external stablecoin liquidity for primary purchases, while tokenized bonds, equities, and other securities created inside Canton could potentially reach secondary markets beyond the network's native ecosystem. The timing also fits a bigger shift in traditional finance. NYSE is working with Securitize on infrastructure for tokenized securities, and earlier this month the SEC approved a Nasdaq proposal that allows certain stocks to trade and settle in tokenized form. That suggests the market is moving past proof of concept and toward real market structure buildout. Central banks are also starting to take the plumbing more seriously. The Bank of England is considering broadening the range of tokenized assets that could be accepted as collateral, while the European Central Bank confirmed banks can use tokenized collateral in Eurosystem credit operations starting in March 2026. For LayerZero, the Canton integration extends its institutional pitch at a time when interoperability is becoming less about bridging crypto natives and more about linking regulated financial infrastructure to public blockchain liquidity. LayerZero's own site currently lists $75 billion or more in assets secured, more than $200 billion in historical volume, and 700-plus companies powered.

Doma weekly: Relay integration, crosschain access and Dominion's Web3 expansion. This week on Doma focused on making DomainFi more accessible and efficient. With Relay integration now live, crosschain flows are smoother than ever. Doma Protocol also crossed two major milestones, over $50M+ in total volume and 6M+ transactions, clear signals of sustained, real usage. At the same time, continued product improvements and a cleaner foundation are setting the stage for scale, while Dominion '26 brings the Web3 side of the industry directly into the domain space. Product updates. This week's release focused on improving crosschain access and simplifying the product experience. The biggest addition is the integration of Relay as a new crosschain bridge provider alongside LayerZero. Doma now routes transactions automatically based on the best available quote. This creates a much smoother experience, especially for users entering from different chains. On the stability side, fixes were shipped to improve wallet connection reliability and resolve issues with profile sharing links. Together, these updates make the overall experience more predictable and polished. * Crosschain bridging via Relay: Relay is now integrated alongside LayerZero, introducing Unified bridge routing for best price execution & Native Relay-powered swaps * Bug Fixes: Wallet connection guard: Fixed race condition in EVM wallet connection and Share profile link: Fixed broken profile sharing Feature spotlight: Relay integration. Relay is one of those upgrades that fundamentally improves how users enter the ecosystem. Users can bridge ETH and USDC seamlessly, with the app automatically selecting the most efficient route. This dramatically lowers the barrier to entry for new participants while making life easier for existing users. Just as importantly, Doma is now also integrated directly into Relay itself. That means users can bridge funds to Doma from outside the app, turning Doma into a more accessible destination for liquidity across the broader Web3 ecosystem. More liquidity. More accessibility. Less friction getting into DomainFi. Doma by the numbers. The impact of these improvements is already visible in the numbers, with strong growth across all key metrics. Total Volume: $50.73M | Total Transactions: 6,149,664 | Total Tokenized Assets: 113,107 | Total Wallets: 39,706 | Launched and Scheduled Tokens: 210+ What stands out most is the consistency: activity is no longer driven by isolated spikes, but by sustained usage across trading, liquidity provision, and domain tokenization. Doma OnAir: podcast launch. This week Doma Protocol also kicked off Doma OnAir, its new live podcast series broadcasted on X. Hosted by Chris Jourdan (Coffee with Captain), the first episode brought together Fred Hsu, Michael Ho, and Bob Mountain from D3 to talk through what Doma has been building and where DomainFi is heading next. The conversation focused on the bigger picture: how domains evolve from static assets into liquid markets, what infrastructure is needed to support that shift, and why timing matters now. If you want to understand the long-term vision behind Doma, this is the episode to watch. Community corner. The Doma community remained highly active this week, with strong engagement across general chat, feedback channels, and Discord quests. A lot of the conversation centered around new token launches, especially continents.ai, alongside deeper discussions about liquidity dynamics and how tokenized domains behave as markets. What's notable is the shift in tone: less speculation, more understanding. The community is becoming more informed, more thoughtful, and more focused on long-term value creation.

The video breaks down how to place bids, where to find incoming offers on your domains, and how to manage your positions effectively.
